While growing up, my three sisters and I used to play ‘modelling'. We'd suck in our cheeks, toss back our hair and sashay our booties down the hallway, make a right at the living room, turn, pause, and turn again, strolling back into our parents' room full of giggles. And though I always knew it wasn't brain surgery, I do think there is a real art to modeling, and this video surely takes us there. From the hip-hop jerky school of camerawork, young (and older!) adult viewers will be rewarded with a full meal deal in this behind-the-scenes how-to hosted by model Kristen Jensen. Organized into five general parts, the program covers a myriad of subjects in a quick stylish way, yet with enough information and detail to really get a feel for the tremendous amount of work (and time and money) involved in making it in this high stress business. Highly recommended for career collections. Aud: J, H, C, P. (N. Plympton)
